I think there could possibly be a new rank, something like this -

I don’t think trust rating should have anything to do with it though.

Trust is controversial enough as it is, without it being used in the ranking-up system. Just imagine the countless accusations that we would see about people stopped from ranking due to collusion/reprisal/you name it. Besides, conceptually the two features have nothing in common, so intersecting them in the ranking-up process would be like forcing marriage of two acquainted but incompatible characters.

That's actually a good idea, to create a new rank after the LEGENDARY, and the TRUST requirement should only be applicable to them.
So its just like the rankings on DOTA2.

Legendary
Ancient
Divine
Immortal

Well, this is just an example of ranking names but I know if ever Theymos can think for a better name of the rankings.

The trust score should never be used as a metric for ranking up, that's not what it's designed for in any case. theymos has said they are not interested in putting up barriers to people being able to rank up this would be just that to many accounts.

Not to mention that when the Trust system changes were introduced he expressed his disappointment in the old system. So I don't see it having ever been given consideration, even now as it's still experimental in itself.

I foresee a situation where the Trust score will begin to serve as the new requirement for members to rank up.

I don't think this will happen as theymos has designed the merit system for the sole purpose of putting knowledge persons to higher rank and not for the trust farmers.

It's over a year now since the sMerit system was instituted and his silence so far in creating another level after the "Legendary" rank portends something, I should think. What do you guys think?

He is not silent basically and is actively working on twicking the merit system in the best possible way. The recent DT criteria update is one of his further step and effort.

Making trust as a Ranking requirement is not a decent solution I think. Huh

I don't think so, if you are talking about the feedback people leave, nobody will force you to trade with someone in order to rank up.
If you talking about having a custom trust list in order to rank up. Could be a possibility but I don't think this will be implemented either.
I don't think we should involve trust in the ranking system at all.
